w. E. Coup's great esquescurriculum
show gave its first performance last
evening in the mammoth tent, corner
of Fourth and Main streets. The enter
tainment was great success and the
tent was actually jammed and many
people were unable to obtain seats. The
show is one of the most interesting that
has ever visited Los Angeles and should
be well patronized. The horses are
perfectly educated and do many tricks
that are beyond the comprehension of
the human mind. The programme is
such that one never loses interest in it.
Besides the tricks of the horses, which
are a show in themselves, there is an
entertaining performance by Charles
and Carrie Moore. the great skaters;
the Girards in their elastic grotesques,
and the dancing horse General Sherman.
The grand military drill is also one of
the special features of the performance,
and consists of the horses forming into
line at roll call and answering to their
names and numbers, and doing other
admirable feats. The performance will
continue all next week, with two matt.

THE CARE OF HOGS.
Health and Growth ofPigs DependentUpo
the Prevention OF Indigestion.

Health and Growth ofPigs Dependent Upon
the Prevention OF Indigestion.
There is no animal on the farm more
likely to be neglected than tn hog, and
yet in many sections of the Wesss he is
one of the many sources of income. On
this account it is important that he
should have better care, which would.
in many cases, prevent the heavy losses
that occur from disease. Swine
breeders do not, as rule, consider that
the hog is, by nature, an eater Of green
food, and dependent in great measure
on grazing. 81
The villager knows how eager the pigs
shut up in the pen during the whole
year are for the grass and weeds from
the garden near at hand; and partly
because he wants to get rid of his weeds
and partly because he thinks the pigs
will like a little green stuff, he throws
the refuse to them. He does not reflect
that green food is the natural susten-
ance of the hog, as it is of the cow
while by feeding on corn alone, he i
keeping the pigs under an artificial
state.
The question is, how best to supply
the hog with food that will most nearly
answer in the place of pasture grass.
for the natural instinct for green ana
soft food should be gratified through
whatever material may be at hand.
Health and growth during the sum-
mer may depend largely upon the sue
cess in preventing indigestion, and the
morbid state of the blood which comes
of this. If no vegetables can be spared
for this purpose, it will pay to buy
them, not on account of the mere nlltrl.
ment contained, but for the dietetic ana
sanitary reasons mentioned above.
Coal ashes, charred coal, and charcoa
from wood, should be within reach az

CURIOSiTIES OF ALLOYS.
Some Of the Difficulties Experienced In tn
Working of Gold.

Some OF the Difficulties Experienced In the
Working Of Gold.
The way in which an alloy of gold
and copper or other metal is affected
by small quantity of impurity pre-
sents one of the most serious difficulties
with which our case-makers and
jewelers. have to deal in working gold.
1t has long been known to workers in
the precious metal that minute quantities
of certain metals render it brittle and
unavoidable; and referring to this, in a
lecture at Birmingham. Prof. Roberts
Austen, of the Royal Mint, said:
"It may be well to demonstrate the
fact. Here are two hundred sovereigns.
Twill melt them, and will add, in the
form of tiny shot, a minute portion of
lead amounting to only the two thous-
andth part of the mass; first, however,
pouring little of the gold into small
ingot, which we can bend and fiatten,
thus proving to you that it is perfectly
soft, ductile, workable. The rest of the
mass we will pour into a bar; and now
that it is sufficiently cold to handle, you
see that am able to break it with my
fingers, or, at least, with slight tap OF
hammer. The color of the gold is
quite altered, and has become orange
brown; and experiments have shown
that the tenacity of the metal-that is
the resistance of the gold to being
pulled asunder-has been reduced from
eighteen tons per square inch to only
FIVE tons. These essential changes in
the property Of the metal have been
produced by the addition of minute
quantity Of lead.'' sit
In the same lecture Professor Roberts
Austen said: "Here is a bar Of tin, two
feet long and one inch thick, which il
would be most difficult to break, though
it would readily bend double. If only
Irub little quicksilver on its surface,
remarkable effect win be produced
the fluid metal viii penetrate the solid
one, and in few seconds the bar will,
rs you see, break readily, the fractured
surface being white. like silver

WHAT is "BECoM NG3"
A Sensible Word of Advice to Young Giris
Suitable Dress.

A Sensible Word of Advice to Young Girls
Suitable Dress.
The word becoming, is one popularity
used in its most superficial sense. We say
hat or dress is becoming, meaning only
that it improves the wearer's appe trance.
The real meaning, the synonym of the
word, is suitable, and here a new light is
brought to bear on the word. If the hat or
dress is not suitable to the wearer,s age,
position in life, place, where and time
when 1t is worn, 1T is not becoming, suit
able.
Nothing so thoroughly reveals the nature
OF young girl as the way she dresses; it
IS Keynote OF character. If young girl
dresses in clothes that ara remarkable for
their colors and pronounced style, it is
strong evidence that she is not gentle or
refined. No gentle or refined girl ever
seeks to attract attention to herself by
clothes; no gentle, refined girl seeks to at
tract attention to herself by any means
She wins it by her character Todress I'M
becomingly is an evidence of ignorance OF
what is suitable, of an unrefined nature, a
want of artistic qualities certain ele-
ment of coarseness.
IL IS Illuminating to true, womanly nat
ure TO find her reputation based on her fine
clothes-qualities of heart and mind all
hidden by the cut, color and style of her
Clothing. 1t is great question whether a
girl possessing real qualities of heart and
mind ever becomes noted as dressmaker's
model. As out of the abundance Of ths
heart the mouth speaketh, so out of the
abundance Of the mind the life speakesh,
and the life is more than meat, than raj
meut
So to dress becominglY a young girl
should consider, first her circumstances in
life; second, the becomingness OF her attire
to the occasion; third, that the dress should
never ovarshadow the wearer No matter
what the cost Of clothes. they can be arts
tic, harmonious, suitable, booming

All these articles were sold at auc-
lion after forty-eight hours. When
this famous seizure was made the man
McRae was at the point of death. His
wife and seven children were living on
potatoes alone. They were clad in rags
and there was not a penny in the house.
Babies and cradles are evidently of
small value in Scotland. "Saxpunce'
is the official figure, while the puppy
log brings a shilling. OF course, the
dog was a Skye. Probably that ac-
counts for it. But the baby was o
Skye, too.
Now. if this unique proceeding had
occurred in Ireland, nobody would be
surprised. The exploits of landlordism
in that country are world-renowned
now, and they are defended by the al
legged 'pure cussedness" and rebellion
Of the tenants. But this novel affair
took place in the land of loyalty. fidelity
and submission, whose people flourish
in the full enjoyment of all the bless
ings of English civilization and laws,
and whose soil, honored by the nativity
of John Brown, is still favored by the
affections of the Empress Of India
